The Partisan advocates discussed the delicate
question 'lias husband right to open his wife's
letters? their last conference and they decided
that he has. A journalist who has consulted sew.
eral extra-egal luminarieS on the point fin DIS
them, with single exception, in Substantial
agreement With the lawyers. An enlightened
priest, whose name Is not given, answered that
the doctrine OF the Church was that the nus
band is master in the house, and that he had
therefore, perfect right TO open his wiles let
tiers.
N. de Pressense. the leading Protestant pastor
In Paris, was somewhat less Affirmative; though
as regards wives who had anything to fear from
| the exercise OF the right, he supported the deci
sion OF the barriSterS, while in the OF good
wife he could not see how it mattered either way.
Alexandra Dumas, looking at the question from
the htStOrico philosophical standpoint, cOntended

Eve in the Garden OF Eden clearly establishes the
right of the husband 10 inspect his wife's CORE

Nine. Peyrebunes answer was also in the af

was OF no practical Importance. as compromising

Adam was the only diSSentient. In her opinion the
husband who opened his w1fe's letters was nothing

sUlclDED IN A CELL.
Being Locked Up Did Not Prevent Boyd
Linki From Taking His Life.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Jan. 26 Boyd Linki,
believed to be Polander, committed suicide
in the lookup at Nanticoke about 2 o'clock
this morning Link came from Massachu-
sets last Thursday and went to a hotel. he
seemed to have plenty of money and spent it
freely. No one knew anything about him.
He was we'll dressed, spoke English fiuently
and was man of intelligence. He drank
very hard and on Sunday had kind of
delirium He was rational enough, but
seemed bent on committing suicide. He
tried to borrow pistol or razor aud tried to
jump out Of the window He was then
locked up in the station house for safe keep
ing, For several hours he remained per-
fectly quiet
Some Of the occupants were drunk and
were singing with all their might. Suddenly
some one called out: "He's going to hang
himself" and Instantly every eye was
fastened on L,nois cell. Lnki was seen
standing on chair close by the door. He
had taken or his coat, vest and suspenders
The latter he had firmly knotted on the top
bar Of the door, and when seen was engaged
in fastening the other end around his neck
For an instant dead silence reigned in the
lookup, while every prisoner in the cells
watched the desperate man with fascination.
Linki seemed perfectly cool, and as he ad-
justed the knot around his neck, he called
out: "Im going to God" and kicking the
chair away, he swung at the end Of the short
line
The other prisoners shouted at the top OF
their voices and called frantcllly for help
Some threw themselves against th5 iron bars
in futile efforts to break them down, but
they were utterly powerless. LiuSi slowly
died from strangulation, He could easily
have saved himself by clinging to the iron
bars, but made no effort. Soon his body
swung there motionloss The prisoners con-
tinued their cries for help, but it was more
than an hour before any one responded. An
officer then came in and cut down the body
but he was dead, No papers giving any in
formation about him were found on the dead
body, but in the inside vest pocket was $3.50
